Aims
and scope
The
design of new products drives to solve problems which solutions are
still partial and which tools and methods of assistance are rudimentary.
Design is applied in extremely various fields and implies numerous agents
during all the process of elaboration and realisation. The International
Journal of Design Sciences and Technology is a multidisciplinary forum
dealing with all facets and fields of design. It endeavours to provide
a framework with which to support debates on the different economical,
historical, pedagogical, philosophical, scientific and technological
issues surrounding design. Its focus is general as well as specific,
at the level of both ideas and experiential savoir-faire. Besides examining
the concepts and the questions raised by academic and theoretical communities
in the hard and social sciences, IJDST also addresses the concerns and
approaches of different industrial and professional design disciplines.
IJDST seeks to follow the growth of the universe of design, to observe,
to interpret and to contribute to design's dynamic, expanding sciences
and technology.
